1. Students will be able to understand the role of meiosis in genetics.

a) Distinguish between dominant and recessive traits (Click Here For Video!)

b) Understand Mendel’s Law of Segregation and Independent Assortment and how it applies to genetic crosses (Click Here For Video!) (Click Here For Video!)

2. Students will be able to understand the concepts of genetic crosses.

a) Differentiate between genotype and phenotype. (Click Here For Video!) (Click Here For Video!)

b) Explain the application of probability in predicting results of genetic crosses.

c) Use a Punnett square to predict results of a monohybrid cross. (Click Here For Video!)

d) Describe how a test cross is used to test the genotype of a dominant phenotype. (Click Here For Video!)

e) Complete genetic problems involving incomplete dominance and codominance (Click Here For Video!)

f) Differentiate between monohybrid and dihybrid crosses. (Click Here For Video!) (Click Here For Video!)

3. Students will be able to understand how scientists analyze human inheritance.

a) Use a karotype to determine a human genetic disorder. (Click Here For Video!)
